Vantaggi
When compared to other workplaces, I'm not sure there are pros here. You will get paid and you will have benefits. Outside of that, nothing stands out at TrueCar.
Svantaggi
Unless you are really in a desperate spot, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. I know COVID has been hard on so many people, but taking a role at a company like this is going to hurt you more down the road. The company growth/promotion cycle revolves around a small group of inexperienced "leaders" who are only looking out for their next payday on the foundation of your work. They do not know how to manage or grow talent, but instead rely on convincing executives that they are experts in fields they know nothing about. TrueCar's employee turnover rate is incredible and yet they still have to conduct layoffs each year because every initiative they come up with, fails. You will never hear any follow ups to goals or OKRs because either those working on them quit in the middle of the year or TC comes nowhere close to meeting them, ever. I was not laid off, but I wish I had been. Coming to TrueCar was the worst mistake I have ever made in my professional career. I learned nothing, the company has achieved nothing, and it was all a big waste of time. These statements are even more true than they have been in the past. As soon as I find an exit, I'm hitting the door and I believe this holds true for more than half of the people left here. If you still don't believe me, just look at the stock performance since 2018. Well before COVID ever existed, this company has been losing hundreds of millions in value. There are reasons and those reasons still work at TrueCar.
